For me it feels :eek: to have so much outstanding on my credit card -- I can only make an online payment every three days and I'm worried that on one card I'll hit my limit if my next mint order hits before all of the scheduled payments kick in.

I have been keeping track of auths and charged on my cards and comparing them to the orders. I don’t want to become over-extended

Mmmm - if I ordered 20K in coins, I could temporarily have enough in my BoA account to completely rebalance my stock portfolios for free (saving a few hundred dollars) ...

NA or Pres? I tried a few ways of ordering the Pres and they all got cancelled. However, I've had no issues turning over LOTS of the NA coins (knock on wood).

Meh. The US terminal (with the exception of the airline that operates out of it) is actually pretty good.

LGA, as a whole, is infinitely more convenient than EWR (or JFK).

Just boarded CO2659. GA b**ched me out for using an electronic boarding pass, told me the program is stupid and should be discontinued.

Funny, I've found it to be pretty nice and easy. Dunno what his damage us, but he was way rude.

Ya gotta give her credit for actually putting the money in a bank rather than buying blow with it every night. :-:

Have you called We Care yet? Complaining about a policy of your employer that increases convenience for customers, eliminates time in line, and reduces paper waste (and cost) is truly :rolleyes:

True. I just wouldn't have wanted to be the one straightening out the $$$s. I would have been purelling and washing my hands all night. I don't like touching cash as it is :rolleyes:

jrzyshawn Aug 10, 2009 3:00 pm

My coins are new and clean, no purell needed :p

Must not be a classy place as usually the singles are folded in half length wise :p.

My HHonors Amex only lets me make a payment once the statement has closed. They're severely limiting my spending potential!

I understand why. It's always on the top 10 ways to avoid a cold/etc. - wash your hands after touching cash. You never know who has touched it.
